Stanford scientists team with indigenous people to study carbon
23.1.15
Stanford scientists team with indigenous people to study carbon: [news.stanford.edu] The first challenge was teaching people with little to no exposure to the outside world just what carbon is. Co-author Kimberly "Kye" Epps, a postdoctoral scholar in Stanford School of Earth Sciences (who passed away during the project,) developed lesson plans for explaining that all life is based on carbon.
Epps pointed out that the black charcoal from a burnt twig is primarily carbon, and how the carbon-laden smoke enters the atmosphere and ultimately affects the global climate. The plants and trees suck carbon from the atmosphere, she explained, and store it in their trunks and leaves.
